    Who did you use to style your hair? I really want to wear my own hair (as opposed to weave) but I'm skeptical of the resort stylist. Has anyone had any good experiences with a stylist in the DR? If so, who? Where are they located? And if possible can you post pics. For my planning brides, have you figured out who you will use to style your hair? HELP PLEASE!!!!!

    I agree with ChelseaCat802, no matter what someone is going to be offended. Honestly, at the end of the day its about the bride and groom. Therefore, I think people should understand and put their feelings aside for that one day. Just my opinion. LOL, I'm still trying to figure out how to do it.

    Quote:Originally Posted by SoonMrsD   Yeah I found out that I would have to pay $1000 outside vendor fee to have them at my wedding which is ridiculous!!!! Thank you for replying! OMG!!!! I thought our 500 fee was high but 1000, sheesh. These resorts do their darndest to keep all the money in house. My finace and I chose the complimentary package at our resort and I wanted to bring in our own sashes (for the chairs) and line the aisle with luminaries but I was told it would be an additional 200. Needless to say I scrapped that idea. I was happy to know I can have programs and fans placed on our guest’s seat with no additional charge.

    Quote: Originally Posted by SoonMrsD Did you have to pay any fees to have them at your wedding? SoonMrsD, I'm not sure what resort you're getting married at but at HRPC there is a 500 off site vendor fee. It may be different depending on your resort. Hope this helps.

    Quote:Originally Posted by terrihugg We had the people at the front desk hand them out as guests checked in. Getting the bags down there weren't so bad because dedicated one suitcase to be specifically for the welcome bags. On the way back home we just had one empty bag! I like this idea. One suitcase for the OOT items and an empty one to take back or store new items. LOL

It's unfortunate that you can't thou definitely would have come in handy. Especially since I'm thinking of doing a hair trial. We've still been struggling with deciding on a photographer. After reading all tge reviews on the site and talking with several companies We have decided to go with HDC! So excited everything is coming together. Good luck all AngBN, I also went with HDC. I'm excited to work with them. I loved their profile and the prices were reasonable. I see you're an April bride as well. If you don't mind me asking, what is your date and what resort are you getting married at?

    Unlike some of you lovely brides I wasn't so trusting. I actually picked my ring out 6 months into my relationship. I sent him the pic and told him where to find it when the time came. Funny thing is, my ring got discontinued the same month he purchased it. He got the last one. Lucky me

    That was the problem my FI and I were running into when he was pro kids. Now we're on the same page. So I think we will be good.

    LOL, I feel the EXACT same way. Not to mention every PERSON (adult or child) has to be accounted for in regards to food.

    Quote:Originally Posted by ChelseaCat802 I'm pretty sure we feel EXACTLY the same way. I would label the invitations as you normally would - and then maybe on your save the date - put "adult only reception." I had a hard time deciding where to put it since we can't really say "adult reception to follow ceremony." I have two really close friends that are currently pregnant and when our AHR happens (January) their babies will be a month or two old. I told specifically they could bring their babies, but that's it. They won't be able to come to our AHR unless they bring them because they're so young. Here is how I did it on my RSVP post card. What do you think? OMG!!!!I I freaking love it. That is uber cute and creative. Also, I would have done the same (for my friends with new babies). Honestly, we don't mind a few kids and weI understand those who may not be able to get a sitter. However, what we don't want is a bunch of kids running around and not being supervised. Unfortantely, past experiences have shown that when parents get in big group settings they sometimes have a tendency to let their kids loose. Ain't nobody got time for that. LOL Beside we'll be drinking and I want everyone to have a good time and not feel restricted by the presence of kids. Our kid will be supervised by his grandparents and his mom. HaHa.

    It's crazy, you don't want to offend anyone but at the same time it's your event. If all else fails I will put adult only. However, I want a clever way of saying it without straight out saying it. That's the "people pleaser" in me. It doesn't come out ofen but every now and again it does. LOL

    My FI and I are planning on having an AHR a month or two after we return from our DW and although our son (the "bestman") and my niece (the "maid of honor") will be present we would like a kid free (as possible) reception. However, I'm not sure how to word it on our save the date/invitations without offending anyone. Any suggestions from those who have planned their AHR and also chose this option would be greatly appreciated.

    Quote:Originally Posted by alycamille Unfortunately we've moved our wedding over to Barcelo Bavaro Palace Deluxe since the rates for our guests were too high... Hopefully we still get to visit the HRPC, because I love the resort. Nonetheless just wanted to say that Mia was great to work with! Anyone who has her, she's awesome. Good luck! OMG!!!!! Yes, the rates are extremely high but I think we got a decent deal for our guest. I am sooooo excited about staying at HRPC. I hope you get a chance to visit in your near future.

    I absolutely love this website and b/c of these forums I have gotten some really good ideas, useful reviews, and needed information. I am excited to say I booked HDC and I look forward to working with them.

    Quote:Originally Posted by KerriAnn5 Hi Ladies! Just some info about the salon. You Can NOT use the credits towards your hair and makeup. I contacted them directly and they said the usage of the credits has changed and they no longer allow it towards those services. From what i seen in other brides photots they did a pretty nice job with the hair and makeup. Also..They do NOT offer flase eyelashes if any of you were looking for that. You can bring your own strip lashes and glue with you and they will help you to apply them but thats the most they will do. They will not do the individual lashes either. Thanks KerriAnn5, that was very helpful. I plan to do lash extension before I get to the DR and my sister is doing my makeup. So, my only worry has been my hair. However, my Dominican stylist here at home said I should no problems getting my hair styled how I want even with resort sytlist. I hope she's right ;-)

    I also love finding good deals especially free. LOL. Thanks brownsugarbride
